Steinbrenner and Yankees Have Purged the 12 Losses
(it's the NY Times so "reg. req'd")
Anderson, you used to be a "contenda" but now you're just a freaking asshat.

Except for the Red Sox and Cubs, name me any team in any sport that brags about when they blew it. Your arguments stink to high heaven when you consider the corp. that cuts your checks.

Jeez, you even noted one of the really relevant stats:
To appreciate the record 39 times that the Yankees have now been there, consider that they have lost more Series than any National League franchise has won.

and then ignored the sheer audacity of such a stat.

Yeah, we've won more than anybody else. AND, We've lost more than anybody else has won. The point is, we've made the Big Game more than any other team, ever, in any sport. The only professional sports franchise that can even attempt to get in the conversation is Montreal's Canadians, and it's been a decade since anybody gave a damn about them

Love 'em or hate 'em, the Yankees are the Gold Standard of Professional Sports. And that's been true before Boss George ever showed up. So shut your pie-hole, and stop carry Pinch's water.
